Don't Accept New Coins
Uploaded on January 22, 2013If someone wants to give you change with the new $1 coins refuse and ask them for a paper dollar. The reason is that "In God We Trust" has been left off of the new coins. It may be no big deal to you but it is just another way the government is distancing itself from what our founding fathers founded this country on.

Sarge, it was the Pilgrams who left Great Briton for religious freedom.
The United States declared Independence from G.B. over taxation issues...not religion.
Just saying.
If you go back and check all of the records of the meetings and writings of the great documents that started this great country our founding Fathers always asked God for guidance before doing anything. Their Congressional meetings were opening with prayer asking God for guidance in their decisions. I think it is safe to say they put "In God We Trust" on our money from the start for a reason because that is how they felt and believed, or it wouldn't have been put on our money in the first place.
Hi...
Have any of you actually seen the new coins...?? Or looked up that 'info' on a site like "Truth or Fiction"? Or looked at the edges of those newer coins?
Just sayin'.
I have 2 of the $1 coins in my hand that my Wife got somewhere. Due to me being old and wearing trifocals and being senile I thought that maybe you questioning me that I had overlooked the saying on the coins. I repeadly looked them over again and could not find the saying. I went to "Snoops" and verified that YES "In God We Trust" had been left off of the new coins.
I must apologize to Pathfinder. I used a magnifing glass and found part of the saying "In God We Trust" on the edge of the coin. No longer than they have been out you can not read it unless you have a magnifying glass. Part of the phrase is already worn off and you can't see it. On one of the coins the only recognizable words are In and Trust and on the other the only recognizable word is We. I didn't think to get out a magnifying glass before to try to find the phrase. Before long with these two coins you won't see the phrase at all so it might as well have been left off in the first place. This proves that you can't always trust Snoops because they said it had been removed.
One way to ensure that you pass on the "In God we trust" motto is to write it on your checks in the note section of the check.
Hi...
You're right about one thing, Sarge01, you certainly shouldn't need a magnifying glass to read anything printed on a US coin...!!
In God We Trust has only been on paper money since 1957, Sarge.
Sarge,
I really wish folks would stop bringing up "what the founders intended" when trying to justify their point of view.
They certainly intended slavery and keeping women from voting too.
The simple fact is modern society is beyond their comprehension.
Modern society may be beyond their comprehension and here-in lies the problem. Your core values don't have to be beyond your comprehension.
Modern society may be beyond their comprehension and here-in lies the problem. In today's world your core values don't have to be beyond your comprehension.
I couldn't stop the first post and needed to insert a couple of words to it.
As long as they actually are YOUR core values and not just "insert core values here" how could they be incomprehensible? I agree with Hoski, the founding father's democratic beliefs were a long way from where we as Americans have developed them. Slavery, women's suffrage, land owner voting only, attitudes towards natives, etc.
I see the constitution as a living document, amendable, and wonderful.
I see the constitution as a document that this country was founded on and I don't really see it as a document to be changed or ammended on the whim of some liberal judge who thinks he knows more than our founding fathers did.
Well it will, its called interpretation. The founding fathers couldn't and didn't pass it all on, instead they came up with a provision for growth and change... the amendment.
Change? Like the eroding of the family? the morphine-like dependence on government handouts?The desire to knee-jerk the passage of overwhelming gun restrictions without even touching the gang related violence in the cities?
I personally could use a little less "change" in America.
They have all you boys brain washed
Sarge,
If you don't think the Constitution should be changed as society develops answer me this: Why do you suppose the founders included the first 10 AMENDMENTS in the first place...and a deliberate process to amend it in the future?
Ditto~~sarge01
Most Banks turned back the $1.00 coin, Some people are collecting them for the GOLD in them/there is NO GOLD in them.
One dollar coins are about the smartest thing they ever came up with here in Canada. Gad, that must be more than twenty years ago. Next brightest move was the two dollar coin. I hate having a wallet stuffed with paper bills the size of a piece of carry-on baggage poking me in the arse. Maybe those who have a bit more padding on their backside don't have as much issue with this. The Canadian government is now calling in all the pennies which is rather sad. But it costs nearly three times what they are worth to produce them so I guess I understand why they're doing it. Sad nonetheless.
Back in the days when a dollar was worth more than a piece of gum it made a bit of sense to keep them circulating as paper (which was a lot more sensible than the bulky, yet beautiful, old silver dollars they replaced - and yes, I am old enough to remember when silver dollars were common currency in Montana). A dollar today is worth less than a quarter was when I was a kid. Just makes sense to make today's dollar as compact as yesterday's quarter.
Omitting a religious message on a coin does not in the least affect my ability to remain Christian or raise my children as Christians. And, as the parable of the Good Samaritan tells us, it is not necessary to impose the Christian god on people to get them to appreciate Christian virtues. That's done by living a good example which, incidentally, does not necessarily require any kind of church attendance (the Good Samaritan worshiped a graven image).
According to a history channel special on the US Mint, American currency, whether coin or paper, must by law have the phrase "In God We Trust" displayed on it. All the new dollar coins I have or seen have this on them.
